About West Elementary

Welcome to West Elementary School! We appreciate your interest in our school! West Elementary School is located on the west side of our small, rural community of Mt. Vernon, Indiana. Our school serves students in Preschool through 5th Grade. At West, we have three sections of classes at most grade levels. We believe:

  • All students deserve the same opportunities to succeed and to excel.
  • All students learn best when taught in a caring, safe, and challenging environment.
  • Learning is a shared responsibility between students, staff, parents, and the community.
  • All students should be life-long learners.
Our staff aspires to base our daily lessons upon these beliefs and learner goals, to ensure that all students can perform to the highest level possible.
